cursive





quite a broad title, i agree.

but cursive is such an nyc institution almost.

it's seriously been a passion of mine for years now. no joke, i have the worst, no really, THE WORST hand writing in the world. ok, well, in the english language. but i've spent more time doodling proper scripts than i care to admit.

in any case, there are soooooo many amazing examples of beautiful scripts throughout the city, that i can not possibly attempt to document them all.

soooooo... if anyone had any, send 'em in!!!

these 2 are some fine examples of cursives that are quite common in this fair city. they are in the common, work a day function of type that i love so much.

one is from the front of a souvenir shop near the empire state building, and the other is from the pediment of a luxury [now at least] building not far off washington square park.

they are both working examples of type.

i fucking LOVE this shit!!!
